"These ignorant people, the most uneducated, the most unimaginative, the most unthinking, who would make themselves the leaders of us all; who would force their feeble and childish beliefs on us; who would invade our schools and libraries and homes. I personally resent it bitterly.β
β Isaac Asimov
Right! And guess whoβd be first in line for disaster relief funds and demanding that something be done to prevent that type of thing from reoccurring?! But donβt you dare take away their polluting toys, cars, etc!
The fuckerβd be burning and still clutch that fucking sign. No great loss.
Itβs not partisan hate. I have absolutely no use for that level of stupid.
MAGA are OK with it while it's in another country, when it's in a blue state, when it's in another town, suburb, street or when it's the house next door ... but if their OWN house burned down, they would be sobbing like James Woods on a podcast.
They really are self-centred entitled deplorables.

We are years behind in leading the world toward a climate resilient and climate forward thinking. We don't even pretend to want to help our own people much less the rest of humanity.
I believe that the climate change is largely caused by mankind. But the a brush fire is still anecdotal. And anecdotes should never be used as evidence of anything.
So sad that some cannot be bothered to understand the difference between it has always rained, stormed, been heatwaves and so on, and the massive amount of it all and with less gaps between the events.
They believe an ear will show no marks after broken glass or fragments from a bullet but donβt believe the build up of carbon dioxide and methane contribute to changes in the climate.
Only when it is convenient for them would they agree with it.
And Trump still believes that "Climate Change" isn't real, even though LA is almost completely on fire from Wildfires and Maui/Lahaina was reduced to ashes almost 2 yrs ago.
The traitorous premier of Alberta was photographed at Mar A Lago today? I think I paid for this against my wishes. She would sell my province for money. Her name is Danielle Smith the Traitor and Oligarch brown noser.
https://youtu.be/jP8nz0cVbzQ?si=jIddJySUDFXjiRI0 I hate seeing someone as stupid as you existing when there is a cure for it. KNowledge and not being a sheep. I don't expect you to watch the video because you are an ignorant leftist and they don't do that. But maybe your kids wills stumble across it...
You do realize it's the exact policies California has put in place to address climate change that caused this disaster, right? Like, you do actually understand that, don't you?
Unfortunately this cartoon goes for every country in the Western world. Too many ignore, in the literal meaning of the Latin word ignorare, climate change
According to MAGA and the 1% climate change is a hoax. In fact all science is not to believed. What has happened to America? The ignorant are in charge.
Please post this information wherever you see Trump and his MAGAt lies about California's response to the global warming driven wildfire crisis. https://gavinnewsom.com/california-fire-facts/
All of you liberals need to stop watching CNN and reading Wikipedia. Go to the library and do some research. You need to read up on civics, history and economics. Y'all are dumb as fuck!
They will just use California's faults (pun not intended) against all Californians, touting their made up KKKristian values and proclaiming that California deserves it for not following right wing kkkristian Nazionalist "tenets". Blue States are the first to help out Red States though. Nice, huh?
Tbh this is more about underfunded public services and bad environment management than global warming, on this one. California has always burnt, it's all about managing the resources after they grow back. Rich people in LA didn't take any lessons from the previous fires and did nothing to manage it.
Cut trees to manage fire hazard is 101 resource management. No people/time to do it, so it inevitably burns as it always do. I agree these are hardcore conditions because of global warming. But every time, these conditions "surprise" people... While I still remember the shit show of the 2018 fires.
Excuse my non native English, bushes and dry vegetation overall. Yes I have lived in Santa Monica and Brentwood, for 6 years. I know these roads, used to take my son to the beach there. I remember the ashes everywhere in 2018 and friends being evacuated. You probably know better.
We are the first generation that is affected by climate change and the last generation that can do something about it and how will we explain to future generations that it was good for the economy when they can't farm the land, breathe the air or drink the water. That's what I want to know.
Unfortunately most people don't understand what climate change is. This needs to be explained better (broken down more). Thanks to certain people and a certain party, they have made this term a negative falsehood. Once you explain it to them, they kinda get it.
Between the schadenfreude of reading Mel Gibson lost his house while on Joe Rogans podcast and knowing there are (likely) climate deniers who have also lost theirs...I'm of two minds about this cartoon.
It's global warming. Trump stooped to a lower level, if that's possible, by calling Governor Newsom "Newsum." He has no condolences or empathy during these wild fires. Shame on him.
Tell Taylor Swift and your billionaire buddies to stop flying private and start drinking out of paper straws then. Also could have been largly avoided if they would have listened to the Republicans idea of diverting more water to california from the north.
Follow the money. If the insurance companies are refusing to insure California homes against wildfires, or gulf coast homes against hurricanes/flooding, due to changes in the climate/weather patterns, maybe no a hoax.
NM here. We've been running 7-9 degrees above normal almost all winter so far. My wife and I see the same evidence everyone else sees in almost all news sources. We just keep telling each other, "There's no such thing as climate change!" and feel better, somehow.
I worry that even after an event this devastating, too many people will just move on soon and 'forget' the precedent of this, continuing to ignore the risks of climate change β until the next "unprecedented" climate-induced disaster happens.
Since climate change is causing more disasters, fires, wind and flooding, why donβt we tax the fossil fuels industry to pay for damage? I propose a $10 per gallon gasoline tax! Tax electricity generated by fossil fuels!!
Climate change is the political slogan that replaced βglobal warmingβ when science proved the opposite. You canβt scream political slogans every time thereβs a fire. Donβt be a climate cultist.
Clean water, clean air and I love the environment too!
But when I vote I say screw you!
We donβt want global warming you say!
But then you vote for those who say nay!
You know what the Lying King and Repug are for!
So why do you vote for those anti environmentalists whores?
I have seen so many disrespectful people laughing and saying California deserves what we get because we are so evil. These are the same fakeass Christians who I'd like to crucify for free. In Facebook jail for calling Karen out on her bullshit! I couldn't care less.

Thank Gooodness, Biden is still in Charge. He is gving all the aid the government can.If Satan was in already, he let it all burn down and say That was a Starting Point for burning down the rest of the country
People ignore the fundamentals of civics and instead go immediately to climate change rhetoricβ¦.cause itβs easy to lump it in a pile just like the civic dutiesβ¦.someone else always needs to do itβ¦never inclusive.
When I was 5, I learned that wood stoves are hot because I touched it. I was told time and time again, but didn't listen.
Some of us don't have a brain of a 5 year old anymore. Others just kinda burn I guess.
Humans are more strongly responsive to emotions and gut reactions. The Rational part of the brain can hardly play catch up. Look for common values rather than arguing facts.
rather depressing in this enlightened age of the internet
people prefer to assume the opinions of social media influencers over actual science
data collected over more than 175 years of study-is considered the fake propaganda of tree-huggers
-while the musings of a talking head are the "real story"
Exactly - I love the internet, but you gotta know how to use it. Wikipedia is one of my most favorite part, and still ainβt trusting it. We can get a science report with a few clicks, research informations. Biggest mistake you can make is jumping from one topic to next, always check the sources. π€βοΈ
you appear to have a healthy scepticism
anything that is written-is always subjective-on some level
Wikipedia usually provides an excellent base starting point
-good luck on your adventures
Thank you. Yes, always been, even before the internet existed. Guess comes from experience, still I find the science approach the best one. Always provide the source of your information. Question and check everything. Like scientists work, a theory only holds up until an experiment proves it wrong.
By design. Some people heard Eisenhowerβs Farewell Address and decided to make it harder to implement his warnings about an educated and alert citizenry. Worth reading the whole address to get the picture.
That's typical Donnie Trumped blather .... Blather: talk long-windedly without making very much sense, or holding up a "completely nonsense" sign.
No Science in his orange head!

A senior Exxon lobbyist in Washington was caught on tape in June describing the company's campaign to cloud the science. "Did we aggressively fight against some of the science? Yes," said Keith McCoy in a sting operation by Greenpeace U.K.

"The fires were caused by climate change and Trump!" This tragedy could never be due to any mismanagement by California's government, could it?
The idea that you can hit the ear but nothing else on that bloviated sack of shit & lies is laughable.
